“If people actually listened to what I have been saying, they will see that it makes perfectly good sense. I believe that the American people are smart enough to recognize that we’re in a very different time right now, and it’s not necessarily the one who shouts the loudest, it’s not necessarily the one who claims to have all this great experience.”

Then Carson basically admitted what we already knew: none of the GOP candidates has a sliver of experience on foreign policy at time when that is more vital than ever:

“The fact of the matter is, there’s nobody running who has a great deal of international experience except for Hillary Clinton.”

The former neurosurgeon also took time to claim that he has the most experience dealing with life and death situations:

“I’ve probably had the most experience making life or death decisions, probably far more 2 AM phone calls that anybody else. And let’s let the American people decide whether that is the right combination. Or maybe the right combination is somebody who has spent a lot of time talking about stuff. We’ll see.”

We’ve already decided who should be answering the phone in the White House, Dr. Carson, and it sure as hell ain’t gonna be you.
